Is it ok to marry a woman 7 years older than me?

ar A, good evening. How’re you and the family? Thanks for publishing my request on 17/11/12. Ask God to connect me to the right person. Is it ok to marry a woman 7 years older than me? Personally I don’t like it. Keep up the good job. Shalom. Rev Lucky.

•Dear Rev. Lucky, I know so many couples whose marriages have lasted through the years and in some of the cases, the wives are older than their husbands. So, personally, I don’t frown at age difference in relationships. But it may call for alarm and concern if you want children (a must in Africa) and the woman is above child-bearing age.

In that case, you must talk it over. I don’t know how old you are and so I cannot say if this woman who is seven years older is right for you. If you however love her and think you will be happy with her, then go ahead. May God connect you to the right person. Good luck. Shallom!
